So I left my keys at work, and when my carpool dropped me off at the Park-and-Ride I reached into my pocket to find it empty.

Luckily the Park-and-Ride is only about 3.5 miles from the apartment, and it’s not raining today, so I was in for a nice walk after work. And it was great!

Oh, and I am so tired of it! I’m tired of throwing money away every month. I’m tired of having so little space. I am tired of WHITE everywhere!

We’re looking pretty actively for a place to buy but haven’t stumbled across the right place yet. Between wanting to be near the city, not wanting a condo, and being on a budget, we’ll have to find something that magically fits all of our needs. Easier said than done!

The people I most admire are those who are full of exuberance. They are vivacious and they try to really experience each day. When I end a day and realize that I have not lived it, but instead only existed through it, I feel I have wasted time that I will never recover.

Maybe this is a close cousin of my other goal to ‘enjoy the process.’ Maybe it’s about paying more attention.
